Description:

Here i have my toyota celica gt4

I bought this car as a running project ,
The gear box was not selecting the gears properly but it had come with a gearbox ,
so i got the gear box changed at a garage only to get a call saying my head gasket was gone ,
Not wanting to give up on the car i found an engine online bought it, took it to a garage to test for compression before i got it fitted at the same garage ,
The engine had The cambelt , water pump , all belts , full service of oils and fluids , A new 3 piece clutch fitted while the engine was out .
i got the car back from the garage for them to tell me the car is now making a noise which will need further investigation,
i’m at a standstill now with this car ,

The car runs and drives although it does not go in reverse gear , i’m told by another celica enthusiast it could be worn bushes on the selector but i’m no mechanic and it’s been costly project up to now ,

The interior is immaculate,

The exterior paint work is ok could do with a polish ,

Another wing supplied to rectify the pink and rust spot ,( haven’t got round to putting it on )

There is a bump on the back easy fix for some car enthusiast , mechanic etc ,

Everything works as it should apart from reverse gear ,

car has alarm and immobiliser that works ,

The alloys are OZ racing rims not bad condition few scuffs ,

It has a few after market bits in the engine
updated turbo
uprated radiator ,

overall apart from a small noise when rev and let go its sound , i can send a video of the noise in engine ,

This car would suit a mechanic / car enthusiast who fiddles with cars and doesn’t pay other people to do the work or knows someone proper ,

The car model on the vin is 5000 series which means it has a few carlos saniz parts like gearbox and uprated diff and some others ,

any questions please ask
